Vivienne Viernes: Six months old. (My favorite picture of Vivienne included at the end.)

(I love sidewalk chalk.)

Um.

I love Vivienne Kate.

Our sweet Diddy is six months old. What? I know. I don't even believe it.

Well, she's totally walking.

(Kidding.)

But there have been SO MANY CHANGES since the last Vivienne Viernes. (I need to start doing these weekly.)

Vivienne is doing great. She weighs 16 lbs and is happy. She smiles all.of.the.time and has just recently started showing a preference toward me. (Which I'll be honest, I love.)

Her sleep schedule has been tough… with our little vacation and teething, we have some rough nights. (I swear, between the two girls - I don't sleep more than 5 consecutive hours a night. Others can do this. I struggle. Oh, how I miss sleep. Restful sleep.) But, we're getting back into the swing of things. This is a season! I want the struggles to fade away, but I'd keep Vivienne this age FOREVER if I could.

So, here's what she's been up to.

Vivienne is teething and therefore drooling. She's had her first motrin, teething gel and shot of Jack Daniels.

She's trying to crawl.

She starts with her head down.

And then Then she inch-worms to where she needs to go. (Didn't know that "inch-worms" was a verb, did you?)

And wah-la... she's there.

She eats now! (She's had cereal, avocado, carrots, melon and bananas.)

Here she is all ready for her first meal.

Smiling while eating.

That was great. :)

She's working on her sippy-cup skillz.

She reads.

She LOOOOVES her sister.

And I think the feeling is mutual.

Vivienne and Ferg are pretty tight, too.

She started a blog. (That's my girl.)

She still abhors the bumbo seat and will only be in it for 3 minutes at a time.

She rarely has her mouth closed. And she's trying sooo hard to sit up.

(How 'bout that hair?)

She HATES to sit in pretty much everything, so we tried out the 'ole walker…

I think she liked it. :)

I love this picture. Where's Vivienne?

My sweet girl on our bed.

I adore babies after baths. Ok, I adore my babies after baths.

I LOVE these pajamas. They were a gift from a friend down here for Lila and are a hand-me down. They're precious. Clearly, Vivienne loves them, too.

Ferg was licking her...

And my absolute favorite picture. I think perhaps EVER...

(Tell me that didn't make you smile.)

Have a great weekend, ya'll.

Ah! Don't forget.

Project Runway Season 9 starts tonight at 9 on Lifetime. (Nine seasons? Stop it.)

I think we should all enthusiastically applaud Lifetime for taking time out of their schedule and airing Project Runway, as opposed to a t.v. movie about teenage rape/incest/wife beating/adultery/bulimia/killing your daughter's cheerleading competitor in a fit of rage/or taking someone's baby from the hospital, no?)

Here, here, Project Runway.

I don't know about you, but I've missed me some Tim Gunn.

Have I missed Heidi? No, not so much.

I wonder how tan Michael Kors will be, though.

And I wonder if Nina's hair will STILL look great.

(Thanks for the reminder, Wrestling Kitties!)

Up for some fashion?

The blue eyeliner isn't working. From here.

I didn't know that Mila Kunis was an ice skater!? From here. Blech.

This is cute. See here. I'd wear it in the fall, though - no?

I'd wear this. See here.

People.com reported this is what Kim Kardashian wore to her bachelorette party. See here.  Her boobs look foolish. So does she.

If I couldn't get my hands on Kim Kardashian's dress up there, then I'd totally wear this if I had a discernible waist. See here. Minka Kelly looks cute. (I need those shoes.)

I don't know this Emma Stone, but this is an awfully striking look. Cute. See here. I like the dress, her hair, the crazy lips AND the shoes.

Ok, that's all for now.

She won't even look at me.

It's haircut day.

Alternate use for baby stuff.

I've briefly discussed the amazingness of the Ultimate Crib Sheet that snaps over your baby/toddler's crib sheet during sick-times/potty training. (See here.)

Please note that it also works FANTASTICALLY as a tent on top of said crib.

I love this baby.
